The other day on IRC Ricardo and 宋文武 noted that python-pillow currently comes with a compressed egg. Because it is compressed, the daemon’s conservative scanning fails to see what store items it refers to; in particular Ricardo noted that on his machine, python-pillow refers to a non-existent store item for OpenJPEG. To fix that, python-build-system must be tweaked to ask for uncompressed eggs. I tried the attached patch, which uses the ‘--always-unzip’ option of easyinstall. Unfortunately, that option is unsupported by some setup.py, such as that of setuptools itself. What would be the right way to do that? TIA. :-) Ludo’.
